My favorite description of personal growth is, “

My favorite description of personal growth is, “You don’t create yourself, you uncreate yourself. You remove who you are not.” This idea was introduced to me by one of my coaches and mentors, Dr. Matt Grzesiak. The moment he said these words to me, I felt like he gave me the words to describe my purpose… And now, I share them with you here with the intent for you and me to get self-reflective together… What is it time to remove? Who are you NOT anymore? What attributes of your life don’t represent how you want to be remembered? We spend almost our entire lives building a protective fortress around ourselves so that we don’t get rejected and hurt… Now, it’s time to start looking in the mirror, take off some of those protective layers and truly live our best selves… So… Share with me here, in one sentence, a paragraph, or an emoji: WHAT IS IT TIME TO REMOVE…WHO ARE YOU NOT?

I truly believe that if more people were engaged a

I truly believe that if more people were engaged and fulfilled in the work they did, there would be more congruency and harmony in the world. 90,000 hours of a person’s lifetime is typically spent “at work.” What a waste of human capital if that time is not spent on something to fill a higher sense of purpose.
.
To increase the workforce engagement rate requires C-Level, Senior and Middle managers to actively lead and not just manage. They will need to understand empathy and the importance of growth for the individual. Even more important than the short-term need for immediate leadership skills, it is time for the education system to start teaching younger generations the importance of living a fulfilled life instead of a compliant life… Just imagine if in elementary school the “system” started to focus on life purpose instead of the perfect grade.

The moment you decide to “live life on your term

The moment you decide to “live life on your terms” you enter a pact that you are willing to disappoint other people. You won’t disappoint everyone, but you will find that some people are not in alignment with some of your decisions, and that is ok!!! Join me here: turn up the volume on this video and slam down gratitude for some of the most powerful places where you had to decide to disappoint people and how it helped you grow exponentially.

Write Your Own Eulogy. I know this sounds a bit morbid, but it is one of the most powerful exercises I have done.
.
Write, in one paragraph for each, how you would like your eulogy to sound from the standpoint of:
1)A romantic partner/lover/spouse.
2) A family member or your child.
3) A friend.
4) A work peer.
.
Now… After you write it, I ask you: Are the actions you are taking in your life now, in alignment with the ways you want to be remembered?

My position on personal growth is that you don’t create yourself, you uncreate yourself. You remove who you are not.
.
We spend years and years adding layers onto our egos to protect our core needs of security, approval, and control. With everything happening outside our windows and inside our hearts right now, it’s a great time to check in with ourselves and ask, “Is the way I am living right now, congruent with the way I want to be remembered?”
.
It is a prime time to create change, positive change, and if we want to make change outside, we have to start with the change inside ourselves… Thanks for being a caregiver to the world. Let’s keep the self-reflection strong.

It’s Week 27 of 52 … As social animals we are

It’s Week 27 of 52 … As social animals we are here to serve other. When you take control of what you focus on, the power you have to make transformative change for your own life and the lives of others is 400x the amount of change, compared to if you had no focus whatsoever. Type a word in the comments section that is representative of how you want to serve your higher sense of purpose this week. Write that word down somewhere for you to reflect on. The word is not an “answer” on how to create growth; it is the lens you can use this week. When you feel like you’ve lost your way or got thrown off track, use that one word like a compass. That word is your centering thought for the week that you can use to help re-align yourself and stay focused on what you DO have control over.

I love the quote “Fire Molds Steel”… A lot of the things we encounter put us under great heat. Wouldn’t it be a shame if we didn’t take that heat and use it to mold us into stronger versions of ourselves. In fact, this is my job as a Leadership & Life coach: To help people gain perspective so that we can grow from our experiences…. So… How did you grow stronger this week? What pushed you into just the perfect amount of discomfort that it created a shift in you? Put your answers in the comment section, so I can give you a shout out back.
